Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de communication directe en mode simplex entre des terminaux mobiles, en particulier entre des téléphones mobiles (6), avec l'utilisation de fréquences porteuses d'un système de radiocommunication mobile cellulaire, chaque fréquence porteuse transmettant une trame TDMA (1) avec une durée de trame TDMA de 4,615 ms et chaque trame TDMA comportant 8 créneaux temporels (2) ayant une durée de 577 ms. Le dispositif comporte un module matériel (4) qui commande la communication directe, qui est conçu pour regrouper des trames TDMA en une multitrame (3) comprenant 13 trames TDMA aux positions 0 à 12, et qui est conçu de telle manière que les terminaux participants dans le mode simplex émettent et reçoivent toujours dans des créneaux temporels (2) distincts les uns des autres (2) et que, à l'intérieur de chaque multitrame (3), seul le premier créneau temporel (2) TS0 dans chaque trame TDMA (1) est occupé pour l'émission ou la réception tandis que les autres créneaux temporels (2) TS1 à TS7 de la trame TDMA (1) restent libres.
